“I told [Johnson] that I was going to be his first quarterback to beat Georgia,” said Shaw, who backed out of a commitment to Middle Tennessee for a verbal commitment to the Yellow Jackets. “He liked the sound of that.”

did anyone tell Jaybo that he’d only have 4 years at Tech? Maybe he thought he’d have a career there like George Blanda did with the Raiders, or Darrell Green did with the Redskins. If he stuck around 20 years, he might get lucky one year.

Of course, if Jaybo gets a redshirt season somewhere along the way, he might be there longer than Paul Johnson. Three years from now, Johnson’s going to have made the Bill Callahan regime at Nebraska look like a golden era.

Quote Of The Day

“Being a student at Georgia and playing ball, I’ve definitely grown, widened my horizons and experienced things I never thought I would. I feel like I’ve grown on and off the field, and the university prepared me for that. I’ve done some awesome things and met some awesome people. I’ll definitely be back to finish my schoolwork, because that was a big priority for me and my family and weighed heavily on my decision. I know football won’t last forever. It’ll be great to come back and get that degree, so I can tell my kids about it one day.” — Roquan Smith, AJ-C, 3/7/18
